May 20, 2009 Lars Von Trier's new movie "Antichrist" created a huge stir at Cannes, where it premiered Monday. Catch some clips right here.

Is it a horror movie? Sounds like it's as much an art film as a horror movie. The film is about a couple (Charlotte Gainsbourg and Willem Dafoe) who, after the death of their child, retreat to a cabin in the woods where they encounter strange and terrifying occurrences.



IFC Films is set to release the film in the U.S., but the French news media are reporting that the movie may be cut. The New York Times says: "The Danish director Lars von Trier will make cuts to his new film, “Antichrist,” so it will be more commercially palatable in the United States and other countries, Agence France-Presse reported."
